When former Alberta premier Jason Kenney was but a lowly minister of state for multiculturalism in Stephen Harper’s Ottawa, he used to be known as the “minister for curry in a hurry.”
The moniker was a nod to Kenney’s punishing weekend schedules: it wasn’t unusual for the minister, despite his work obligations in Ottawa, to wrack up 30 visits in a weekend of campaigning in multicultural hotspots such as Toronto and Vancouver. Kenney would dip into this temple and that, from this cultural celebration to another, sampling the culinary delights of each community as he went.

Former public safety minister Marco Mendicino says he is very worried the public conversation about some parliamentarians being complicit in foreign interference is becoming a “kangaroo court.”
